Polaris PMS 419 User Manual

Careful periodic maintenance will help keep your vehicle in the safest, 
most reliable condition. Inspection, adjustment and lubrication of 
important components are explained in the periodic maintenance chart.

Inspect, clean, lubricate, adjust and replace parts as necessary. When 
inspection reveals the need for replacement parts, use genuine 
POLARIS parts available from your POLARIS dealer.

Record maintenance and service in the Maintenance Log beginning on 
page 139.

Service and adjustments are important for proper vehicle operation. If 
you're not familiar with safe service and adjustment procedures, have a 
qualified dealer perform these operations.

Maintenance intervals in the following chart are based upon average 
riding conditions and an average vehicle speed of approximately ten 
(10) miles per hour. Vehicles subjected to severe use must be inspected 
and serviced more frequently.

• Frequent immersion in mud, water or sand
• Racing or race-style high RPM use
• Prolonged low speed, heavy load operation
• Extended idle
• Short trip cold weather operation

Pay special attention to the oil level. A rise in oil level during cold 
weather can indicate contaminants collecting in the oil sump or crank-
case. Change oil immediately if the oil level begins to rise. Monitor the 
oil level, and if it continues to rise, discontinue use and determine the 
cause or see your dealer.
